This podcast is the antidote for stress and anxiety. Gretchen’s calm, clear voice and welcoming tone make a pause accessible to everyone. I have PTSD and some days sitting and breathing isn’t calming but Gretchen’s mindful movement episodes help me redirect my thoughts and calm my mind.

You cannot continue to drive a car without stopping occasionally to put fuel in it and do some routine maintenance. The same is the case for you, except it's even more important. The results of taking the occasional intentional pause can be dramatic and life-changing. Take a pause, listen to this gem of a show and you'll be amazed at the difference it makes!

If you haven’t slowed down and given yourself permission to take a breath. Let this podcast be your call to pause.

REALLY enjoy this pod cast series. Gretchen’s voice makes 10 mins seem like 60! Who knew a pause was so beneficial, so quick and so valuable to make a difference in a day.

This series is brilliant! These short sessions can show you how easy it can be to slow down, breathe, and recharge your day. Gretchen's voice is both soothing and encouraging, while her down-to-earth advice leads you into developing a simple meditation practice that will fit into your life. While I already enjoy meditating on my own, it often helps to have someone else lead the way and remind me why it makes sense to keep making time for a little peace in a busy day. I'm looking forward to the next episodes!

Gretchen is a gem of a voice/teacher/leader for any pranayama, mediation, or yoga practice. I have had the amazing privilege of experiencing her in-person and to be able to carry those calming, centering, and grounding meditations and practices with me on-the-go and from a distance is such a beautiful blessing. Her first episodes are “so Gretchen” - authentic, inspiring, meditative. Her voice is one of the most soothing I know. Thank you so much, Gretchen, for your encouraging and supportive voice and new podcasts that helps me build my own self-awareness and presentness. Love and hugs with so much gratitude!
